Positioning Qt Widgets on the screen

[adam.yh.lee]

I am a complete newbie in Qt. I am bringing up a mobile development platform so my software developers can write custom Qt applications. I have successfully brought up Qt-Wayland "minimal-qml" compositor. I can launch widgets from the Qt 5 demo directories. Now I want to be able to place these widgets at a specific location on the screen. Where or how do I go about to do this?

For example, classwizard demo widget has these files:

# ls
classwizard      classwizard.cpp  classwizard.h    classwizard.pro  classwizard.qrc  images           main.cpp

I have an inkling that main.cpp is the one to make the necessary changes:

#include <QApplication>
#include <QTranslator>
#include <QLocale>
#include <QLibraryInfo>

#include "classwizard.h"

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    Q_INIT_RESOURCE(classwizard);

    QApplication app(argc, argv);

#ifndef QT_NO_TRANSLATION
    QString translatorFileName = QLatin1String("qt_");
    translatorFileName += QLocale::system().name();
    QTranslator *translator = new QTranslator(&app);
    if (translator->load(translatorFileName, QLibraryInfo::location(QLibraryInfo::TranslationsPath)))
        app.installTranslator(translator);
#endif

    ClassWizard wizard;
    wizard.show();
    return app.exec();
}

However, my road ends here. I have no idea where to go from here. Help will be definitely appreciated.

@adam.yh.lee
where do you want to position the window? I mean on a specific coordinate or in a corner/centered on the screen?

@raven-worx

Specific location on the screen would do the job.

@adam.yh.lee
then simply call move() on the top-level widget

@raven-worx great thank you. That's all I needed.
